Diamond plate under jacks
Hi everyone! One of these days I'm gonna learn. Not today, I guess.

I thought I was e-mailing privately to Paul Williams - duh, I posted
instead.

Of course, if anyone has any suggestions for support under the jacks -
we're all ears.

March 1 is National Pig Day. Everyone enjoy!

I use 1/8" x 12" x 12" diamond plate, back-to-back double
stacked/welded on the edges. They work great in all areas. I the soil
under the plate is soft they give some but not collapse. Turn them
over the next leveling process and they straighten out.

Pen Sand,
I went to a local plastic shop and bought 8 ea. 14" x 14"x 1/2" pieces
of ABS plastic plate and some ABS glue. Glued in pairs, and rounded the
corners and drilled some holes for rope for handles and they work
great. If the ground is soft they just bend and don't break or deform.
Plastic is so easy to work with.

I cut some 16 x 24" sheets of 3/4 inch plywood (exterior grade).
Drilled a couple of holes at one edge and knotted a rope handle
through the holes. Works great. Might paint 'em some day when I'm bored.
